Great deal for the money

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this tablet on the early Black Friday sale a month ago, so it was nearly half of it's original price. It was still more than I initially wanted to spend, but it was well worth the extra money. The cheaper tablets I had been looking at had half of the storage and memory, while the Tab 2 has 32GB of storage and 3GB of memory. I knew the Tab 3 was out, but the Tab 2 fit all of my needs and was the size I wanted. I use the tablet for basic day-to-day applications such as email, social media, and the internet. I haven't tried to stream any videos yet, but the speaker is rather anemic, so if good sound quality is important, look elsewhere. Since I have a Samsung smart tv, it will connect to that if I want to. It comes preloaded with some apps that I didn't need, but I was able to uninstall those. Many of the apps and info transferred over from my cell phone even though it's an LG. The only one that doesn't always sync very well is the calendar, which I hope I can fix. I also love that it has Microsoft apps. It only comes with the charger, so you have to purchase a micro USB cable separately. For the price of the tablet, this is something that I think should be included. The only issue I have is that it's not as touch sensitive as other tablets I've used or my phone is, and there is no way to adjust the sensitivity of the touch according to the Geek Squad. I have to tap icons and letters on the keyboard more firmly, and when I'm typing I have to be careful to make sure the letter I've tapped shows up. However, if you're holding the tablet in your lap and typing, be careful not to have your fingers or thumb touching the top of the screen anywhere as that area seems to be plenty sensitive. If you even barely touch the top, anything you have typed is gone when the page changes. Example: this is the 2nd time I've typed this review.

Comedy icons Gene Wilder, Peter Boyle, Cloris Leachman, Marty Feldman, Teri Garr and Madeline Kahn star in Mel Brooks' brilliantly outrageous riff on Mary Shelley's classic story of Frankenstein. After inheriting his grandfather's castle in Transylvania, young Dr. Frankenstein (Wilder) follows in his ancestor's freaky footsteps as he sets out to reanimate a dead body in Brooks funniest, most cohesive comedy to date'. (The New York Times)

Mel Brooks, Gene Wilder, how can you go wrong?
on March 26, 2017

Verified Purchase:Yes
If you have never seen the movie, it is in B&W. It's considered a comedy horror, particularly a parody of the various versions of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. An epic cast - Gene Wilder, Marty Feldman, Peter Boyle, Cloris Leachman, Teri Garr, Madeline Kahn, and Gene Hackman among many others, directed by Mel Brooks. One of Wilder's most successful films. In 2003, it was deemed "culturally, historically or aesthetically significant" by the United States National Film Preservation Board, and selected for preservation in the Library of Congress National Film Registry. It's a Blu-ray, which I didn't realize when I purchased it, and all I have is an ~15 year old DVD player, so now it's time to upgrade to a Blu-ray player. A very good excuse to do so.

Came highly recommended

Verified Purchase:Yes
I have to admit I haven't seen it yet, which is why I only gave it four stars, however several people, including my mother, have told me that I absolutely have to see it, so when I was in Best Buy looking at movies and saw it at a good price I picked it up. It's got some great actors - George Clooney, Matt Damon, Bill Murray, and John Goodman, and the story line looked interesting, plus it got decent reviews. So, I figured for about $10 it was worth checking it out.

A true classic!!

I grew up watching this movie, and whenever it comes on TV I can still sit and watch it - it's timeless. Based on Roald Dahl's book, which, of course, would make it a winner (Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, James and the Giant Peach, and many more) the story itself is so relevant for the ages and teaches lessons that no one should ever forget. Then there's Gene Wilder as the wacky Willy Wonka - perfectly cast for the role (Blazing Saddles, Young Frankenstein). It is also a musical. This is a movie for children and adults alike. It's a Blu-ray, which I didn't realize when I purchased it, and all I have is an ~15 year old DVD player, so now it's time to upgrade to a Blu-ray player. A very good excuse to do so.

Wanted the movie that began everything

Verified Purchase:Yes
I have to admit that I have never watched the entire movie, but I have always LOVED the TV series, so I wanted the movie that it was based on. That's the reason it's only getting four stars. I know that only Gary Burghoff carried over to the series, and that it will not be "just like" the series, but that's to be expected. Of course it also came out not long after I was born, as well. I'm dating myself there. lol I like that they added some extras such as the AMC Backstory and the 30th Anniversary Cast & Crew Reunion, which I've seen and was very interesting. It's a Blu-ray, which I didn't realize when I purchased it, and all I have is an ~15 year old DVD player, so now it's time to upgrade to a Blu-ray player. A very good excuse to do so.

I have always loved this movie!

Verified Purchase:Yes
I saw Moulin Rouge when if first came out in the theater and fell in love with it so I had to add it to my slowly growing collection. I have an undergrad degree in English and it's based losely on Romeo and Juliet. The movie is hard to describe - a wild, crazy ride with constant twists and turns. To make it even better, it's a musical, and Nicole Kidman and Ewan McGregor were advertised to have sung their parts themselves, with amazingly good voices. A must-see! (although it would be much more impressive in the theater) It's a Blu-ray, which I didn't realize when I purchased it, and all I have is an ~15 year old DVD player, so now it's time to upgrade to a Blu-ray player. A very good excuse to do so.

Excellent sound for its size!

Verified Purchase:Yes
I only very recently purchased the stereo and haven't had a chance to really try out everything yet, but I have used the CD player a bit, which is what I was looking for - a multi-disc player. My first bookshelf stereo I purchased when they were new to the market in the early '90's for over $600 (and that was with a company discount!), was a high end brand that came in 2 pieces plus speakers had lasted 20 years and endured several moves and much abuse. By the time it died, bookshelf stereos were not as high quality. I found another one that still had pretty decent sound, but it only lasted about 5 years without the abuse. Then I went cheap and bought one online and the sound was so awful I didn't use it at all. (I'm very picky about having a good, full sound range with lots of bass), plus you could hardly pick up any radio signal. I went several years not listening to any music at home, then started shopping around, looking online then at Best Buy and ran across this Sharp. The reviews were pretty decent both places and it had the 5 disc changer, which was something I really wanted - at least 3 discs - and the price was reasonable, plus it fit in the space I had. I wasn't sure what to expect when I set it up, but when I put a CD in and turned it on, I was blown away by the sound! I haven't played much with the settings, but the preset one has more than enough bass and treble/mid-range for me. Like I said at the top, I haven't tried everything out yet, including putting all 5 discs in, so hopefully all works as it should and it lasts longer than my last decent one. I'm certainly not expecting 20 years out of it like my high end one because they don't make stereos like they used to, but 10 years would be nice.
